If you are taking a vacation on the Basque coast and you want to take some surfing lessons, then a private lesson with an instructor from La Vague Basque is the best that you can get!

Whether you are a beginner wanting to surf for the first time, or you are already experienced but want to progress at the legendary spot where people first surfed in Europe, a one-on-one private lesson with one of the longest established and best surf schools in the area is the smart option!

La Vague Basque has been established for 19 years, having been started in 1997 to address the problem for a lack of training for young surfers in France. David, a qualified life saver, has been teaching surfing for 21 years at the best beach along this coach, so what better place to learn to surf!?

Our program is fully structured and proved to work. We take enough time on the basics to give you the skills and confidence that you need. The lessons are driven by you: Your existing skills and desire to progress. We can offer guidance for surfers looking to catch their first waves, reach the line-up, surf unbroken waves and even perfect maneuvers!

Our lessons last for 90 minutes and include rental of a surfboard and a wetsuit as well as comprehensive insurance. Classes will run at a pace dictated by you. Our aim is always to develop your confidence at the same pace as your skills giving you the ability and outlook to become a better surfer! If you really want to make some progress consider booking a block of a few lessons with our highly experienced team!
